This I discovered today. Although it has been about five years since you reverted this vandalism, I'd like to still thank you for doing so. Looking back at my very old Wiki experience, quite I feel like face-palming myself based on my youth immaturity from years ago; I am now a grown-up and therefore I am more mature; however, I have been less active on Wikipedia.

I think you should reconsider the closing of the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Corey Parchman. The discussion was relisted to establish a clearer consensus and no new arguments were introduced after the relisting. I believe the discussion should have remained open.--Paul McDonald (talk) 12:41, 24 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
An editor has asked for a deletion review of Corey Parchman. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Paul McDonald (talk) 17:24, 24 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for uploading File:Samuel davenport cropped.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Hi there, a bit of a form letter from me, Cyphoidbomb, but I wanted to drop you a line and thank you for your support at my recent RfA. Although I was not successful, I certainly learned quite a bit both about the RfA process and about how the community views my contributions. It was an eye-opener, to say the least. Thank you!

I sent you an e-mail regarding the deletion of my photograph. Also, I do not understand exactly how OTRS has to do with the deletion of my picture. The picture was of my family members, and if one of them complained about it, you could have felt free to tell me on my talk page. If it was for another reason, please send your reply to my e-mail address.Lord Laitinen (talk) 20:40, 1 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

- I really don't think the image description is appropriate. Could I ask that you change it? Daniel (talk) 13:00, 2 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi Daniel,
It appears that your email address has been compromised by a spambot. Just wanted to make sure you were aware so you can change your password. Best, Mike V • Talk 18:20, 9 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
- Hi Mike, thanks for the headsup. I just went through my email sent items and there's nothing in there. Further, I have two step verification, so unless someone broke into my house they can't log on. The only thing I can think of is that it was an spoof, perhaps?
- If you happen to have the email still, any chance you could forward it to me (with the headers)? You've prickled my curiosity! Cheers, Daniel (talk) 08:36, 10 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
- Thanks Mike for forwarding. My account did get hacked last August (when the email was sent) - not sure why it only landed in your inbox this week. Daniel (talk) 21:57, 10 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
- OK, I wasn't sure if the date was spoofed or if my mail client randomly decided to pull it yesterday. Anyways, it's nice to hear everything is in order. Mike V • Talk 22:07, 10 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

You deleted my entry on Carson Block & Muddy Waters & for what? It was all neutral, firmly substantiated, and properly sourced. It's people like you that censor inconvenient truth for personal gain & crookedness.
Rondonvolante (talk) 23:25, 22 April 2014 (UTC) RonDonVolanteReply
- Neither personal gain nor crookedness, I'm afraid. The article was far from neutral, by the way - to the point that it was unencyclopedic. Daniel (talk) 23:27, 22 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

I have submitted a OTRS Volunteer application here.--Dom497 (talk) 23:44, 28 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
- Hi Dom497, can confirm we have received the email (OTRS #2014042810000351). Your application will be processed in due course. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 00:20, 29 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 4 (number), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Four-character idiom (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello. Since you cleaned-up Carson Block and protected it a while ago you might be interested in this report at WP:AN3. Thomas.W talk 09:20, 1 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
- Hi Thomas, I actually posted at BLPN requesting a block also, I didn't even think to look at AN3 to check if someone had filed it there. I could technically block per policy as I'm not strictly involved and have the immunity which BLP provides, but I'd prefer someone else to, just to keep it clean. Fingers crossed one of my colleagues sees one of the two reports sometime soon! :) Regards, Daniel (talk) 09:50, 1 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
Alright, hello. Related, why is this clearly photo-shopped picture uploaded by the now banned User:Rondonvolante not deleted on the wikia picture project? https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Carson_Block.jpg Mosfetfaser (talk) 18:30, 1 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

- I sent you an e-mail regarding the deletion of "Lord Laitinen's Female Relatives, September 2011.jpg", which I had previously not known about. I spoke to these female relatives at a party today, and they both liked the picture, and wanted me to put it back up on my user page. Neither of them requested its deletion, so I wondered why OTRS was involved. Please send me an e-mail reply at geopatdoer@yahoo.com, or reply on my talk page. Thanks.

I have nominated Central Coast Mariners FC for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. BencherliteTalk 19:06, 27 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
